Jeremy Ng and Amanda Misso bought the first floor of a 1950s house in Singapore for about $1.34 million.
The house had previously been split into 7 bedrooms and was rented out to foreign workers.
They transformed the unit into a colorful home with lots of natural light and a ride-in motorcycle garage.
The couple wanted something with a bit more character than the typical, run-of-the-mill apartment.
Singapore is the most expensive city to live in, according to The Economist Intelligence's Worldwide Cost of Living survey in 2023.
They spent nearly $500,000 on the entire renovation of 1,900-square-foot unit.
The living room and the study are located in the front part of the house. Bedrooms are off to the left, and a long corridor covered with a skylight leads to the open kitchen and the courtyard in the back.
The couple estimates that they spent about SG$500,000 on the entire renovation.
The back of the house with the open kitchen and dining area is the couple's favorite part of the house.
The couple added automated metal shutters that allow for the indoor parking of their Vespa scooter and Triumph motorbike.
